Just complete our simple application process: Apply to Affiliate Program

What does it cost to join?

Nothing – it's free!

What if I don't have a website?

There are lots of simple and inexpensive tools available that can help you to quickly set up a website. But if you don't want to go that route, you could look at promoting on Facebook or YouTube.

How do I get everything I need to promote Sophos?

Once you're officially a Sophos Affiliate you'll have access to marketing materials, content, and links from our Affiliate Portal managed by our partner, Cleverbridge.

What commission do I receive on sales?

Sophos will pay you 30% of the net amount of every sale that occurs as a result of your site. Sometimes during the year we may institute promotions which include a higher commission rate.

How do you track those sales back to me?

We drop a cookie on any customer who reaches us through links from your website.

What if the prospective customer doesn't buy on the first visit?

No problem. Our cookies persist for 90 days. As long as the customer makes some kind of transaction in that time frame you should receive credit for the order. Why "should"? Because if the customer changes browsers, clears their cookies, or chooses to browse in incognito mode we will lose tracking.

What if the prospective customer chooses to download trialware? Would I still get credit if they eventually buy?

Yes, we will still track them via the cookie and give you credit if they convert to paid product.

Can I use paid search to promote Sophos?

Yes, but with restrictions. We can help you understand the capabilities and rules around paid search once you join the program.

Is the Sophos affiliate program limited geographically?

No, we have partners all around the world.
